Woof, thought the website crashed for a hot minute.

Okok, will obviously buy with Zelda as a launch title, but the launch lineup looks incredibly weak. Has anyone done a list of what releases can be expected at what dates?

 

[Metroidvania]

Welp, Zelda's definitely on the less likely side of being playable given that she's both apparently the damsel (uuuuugh), and is voiced while Link isn't.

One day, perhaps.

 

[Crazyorloco]

Zelda saved everything. Damn.

Incredible music.

 

[jjasso21]

Day one for me. Also where is Pokémon?

 

[RobotMoses]

That... was the most amazing trailer I have ever seen. Christ.

 

[Spirit Icana]

That Zelda trailer was AWESOME!!!!!

 

[Stencil]

Share the joy, wow.

Droppin' some bombs in here, Koizumi.

Suda51 what a weirdo!

edit: You guys aren't hyped? I guess they didn't show a whole lot. But open-world Mario, did I understand that right? Also ShinMegaTen and Dragon Quest!! Splatoon 2!
I'm sure there are many more games in the pipeline; Miyamoto wasn't even at the presentation (or, I haven't seen him yet) and he has confirmed Pikmin 4 is in the works in the recent past.

 

[RadarScope1]

dope trailer

For real. It looks awesome.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

You wanted a female link. Here, have crying Princess Zelda instead.

:/

game looks great but that's annoying

also wow. what a conference, lol.

 

[beta_fuse]

Thank god for that incredible trailer cause the rest of that conference was Nintendo being Nintendo. I'm very sad to say it but this was a huge disappointment.

 

[Fancyarcher]

Zelda is a launch title. Wow! Looks incredible! Also it apparently has voice-acting in it, wow.

 

[Galang]

Day 1. It has more games than Vita already. lol

What?...

 

[Not]

Nintendo just needs that one game lol

 

[VPhys]

Seriously..

$300
Mario not on day 1
Paid Online
2 to 6 hours battery life
No Pokemon
No Smash Bros
Broke Wii Sports up into 3-4 different games


Just... AGHHH.

How the heck are we supposed to take this on a plane with 2 hours battery life.

 

[Servbot24]

Hype Zelda trailer. Too bad I'm not wasting my money on a Switch. Wii U has been a barren wasteland for a couple years and you give us this shit Nintendo? Lol. Not fooling me again. I'll get one in 2019 or 2020.

 

[kendrake]

only mario and zelda mattered

holy fuck that was bad

 

[arimanius]

Nintendo better have more tricks up its sleeve. Zelda looked awesome but $300 and paid online and I'm going to wait unless there's more to play.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

I actually managed to focus on the presentation and not check this thread very much at all!

I really enjoyed it. Very excited for the Switch at this point. Hopefully I can get in a pre-order whenever they go live.

 

[Toa TAK]

THERE WE GOOOOO

 

[2SeeKU]

WiiU 2 Confirmed!

Overpriced (for the hardware), not enough first party launch games and packed with gimmicks...

 

[DKHF]

That was an amazing Zelda trailer.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

Zelda looks good, but that's kinda expected.

It looks like I'll be waiting for the games to come out before pulling the trigger on the Switch.

 

[The Omega Man]

Buy Zelda BoTW for WiiU, play it on CEMU on 4K, buy Switch when Mario launches

 

[MCN]

Yup, Zelda is the big launch title.

 

[Col.Asher]

where's Retro Studios?

 

[Kathian]

This should have been a direct. Bloated. And frankly the lack of information was ludicrous. They literally told us one game at launch.

We better move back to directs.

 

[fisheyes]

Well, Nintendo, you Nintendo'd us all again.

Zelda at Launch is nice. Mario looks rad. Where was the rest?

 

[Izayoi]

PLEASE LET ME KEEP THE JAPANESE DUB


PLEASE
AFFORD ME JUST THIS ONE THING

 

[HotHamBoy]

Yup, system bought just for Zelda, as for the rest of the presentation it was absolutely terrible

Just play Zelda in Wii U.

There is no reason to buy this console at launch. None.

 

[Kouriozan]

Zelda is BEAUTIFUL, daaaaamn

 

[Big Green Anus]

Zelda looks amazing and another Game of Year contender. Hopefully, Wii U version not cancelled.

 

[Neonep]

I said it before and I'll say it again, I might as well get Zelda on the Wii U.

 

[JakR]

That press conference was bad, but Zelda story trailer was amazing and great.

 

[Black_Red]

Mario and Zelda trailers were amazing.

 

[Skrams]

 

[JaseC]

So how did LKD do?

Rather awful on the software side, though she did say that some of things may be pushed back to E3. No Rabbids + Mario RPG, no Mother 3, no BG&E2 teaser, no Splatoon pack-in, no Dark Souls port, no Rayman Origins port. Aside from Zelda, every title she mentioned by name was a no-show.

 

[Plum]

Zelda looks fucking amazing as always; I'm getting the Switch just for that.

But to be honest, I'm hard to disappoint and that was disappointing. I'm worried about 3rd party support, worried about launch games, worried about specs and just generally worried.

Goddammit Nintendo

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Zelda on launch nice...but if you have a wii u no need to rush and buy a switch on day one...thinking it will be worth getting a switch during the holiday!

 

[djplaeskool]

Not even a great Zelda trailer can salvage what was pretty much a waste of an hour.

 

[jackdoe]

As a current Wii U owner, nothing in this presentation convinced me to purchase a Switch day one.

 

[Zubz]

I guess I was hoping for too much wanting another badass reincarnation of Zelda instead of another girl next door type.

 

[BumbleBee Castle]

That soundtrack is unparalleled...

 

[Dreavus]

Goddamn Zelda looks fucking awesome. That art style is unreal.

 

[SpookyBlackFish]

There are still many questions left.

But Zelda at launch! Count me in!

 

[ironcreed]

Yep, I may pick me up another cheap Wii U to play Zelda on. Other stuff as well, as I actually adore that system. A huge pass on Switch.

 

[CrashPrime]

Shitposts about the hardware all you want but breath of the wild and Mario oddysey will be worth the price of admission alone.

Wii U BotW version won't be much worse, and Odyssey is a year away.

Not at launch it won't be.

 

[NotSelf]

$300 just to play one game I have to give this some thought.

 

[Krakin]

redeemed!

 

[Kawngi]

Zelda saving the launch period by itself
